There are many different ways to be able to help out the environment, should you want to do something like that. You can head to your local park and pick up the trash, you can adopt a highway and volunteer to clean it up every once in a while, or you can petition the government to save endangered species. One way that people do not often think of is to have solar power for homes installed into their own houses, which can be even more helpful than all of the above. The way that solar power for homes helps the environment is by harnessing the light and heat of the sun and trapping it in containers near your home, so that when you need to start something up, it can be done through this channel. This means that if you want to take a shower, you can have the sun’s energy heat up your water instead of doing it through the standard methods. Every time you use solar power for homes in your own home you are saving the gas that would have been used otherwise. Instead of taking up resources that cannot be replaced and can even harm the environment, solar power for homes is totally safe and easily replaceable. It may sound like something like this can only work if the weather outside is nice and hot, but that is actually not true. » Read more: Solar Power For Homes

Electric content management: Is your office saving trees?

October 19th, 2009

Walk into Le Chic Dentistry and you’ll notice space free of clutter, unlike most offices.

What’s different at this forward-thinking practice is there’s no paper to be found anywhere because they have incorporated electronic content management software. ECM can be an expensive initial investment but important and also very environmental friendly.

‘We wanted our office to resonate with warmth and care for our patients and also demonstrate, in a real way, what people can do every day to make small changes that can have a huge impact,’ Dr Hadian says.

‘In the long term, the ECM paperless system is more cost-effective than keeping traditional paper charts,’ says Dr Sadri. It also reduces toxicity issues associated with dentistry, an important factor in protecting the health of staff and patients. The environmentally friendly system works like this: A first time patient is directed to a computer workstation to fill out their information. Their file is kept in digital format with electronic content management rather than traditional paper files, including charts, x-rays, camera images, prescriptions and clinical notes.

This system saves mounds of paper each week and is an enormous benefit for patients. Everything can be done online, from requesting an appointment, making a payment or accessing their account.

Electronic document management will soon become the standard for dental care. The benefits are a wiser, healthier and greener choice for all.

RIO combines powerful Enterprise Content Management software with sophisticated business process management software for effective information management throughout the enterprise.
